International Day of Pink

Today is International Day of Pink, an observance that encourages us to celebrate diversity in our community and ensure that we continue taking steps toward a more tolerant society. Everyone in our province deserves respect.

The GPO stands with those who do not tolerate bullying, homophobia and transphobia.

We must be aware of the fact that bullying exists on a daily basis, and we must work together to stop it. This is particularly true in youth groups and schools. We owe it to our children to ensure that these are inclusive spaces to express themselves.

The GPO encourages everyone to wear pink today in support of victims of bullying, and to continue to speak out against discrimination.
